Application of case-based learning in standardized training of airway management in residents / 中华医学教育探索杂志

ABSTRACT

Objective:To compare the effect of case-based Learning (CBL) and problem-based Learning (PBL) in clinical education in anesthesiology.Methods:A total of 39 residents who received airway management training in 2018 and 2019 were included in this study. Nineteen residents received training of airway management by PBL in 2018 (PBL group), and 20 residents received training of airway management by CBL in 2019 (CBL group). Students in both groups received assessment and questionnaires at the end of training.Results:The scores of theoretical examination and students' teacher satisfaction degree in the CBL group were higher than those in the PBL group ( P<0.05). However, there was no statistical difference in clinical operation assessment between the two groups ( P>0.05). The chi-square test, and t-test analyses were performed using SPSS 19.0. Conclusion:In the standardized training of airway management, CBL teaching method is better than PBL teaching mode, which enable the trainees to master the relevant knowledge and improve their acceptances of teaching procedures.
